PA over marked by 2-3 points. The first out probably Kirsty or Jamelia. I liked Jamelia's dance but there is hatred for her ( shown on this forum) that may well be shared by the voters.
Hate the themes/ props! Just dance, to quote Lady Gaga !

If it wasn't a cha cha then Craig would have had his guts for garters . , you know what he's like . Clearly it passed as a cha cha to the judges . I loved it .

It was good but I agree with fayebeatle. He was 2-3 points overmarked.

Me too! Grrr

That was a great night. Even though I didn't like the choreography, I thought Peter did the best. I'm shocked about how good Katie is though! She could easily be the dark horse in the competition.

I can't believe PA is topping the leaderboard. Completely underserved. Jay's CCC was much better than his technically and was recognisable as a CCC.

The Brad Pitt liked Peter's routine .

Great idea with results show Sunday !

Peter reminds me of Ray Quinn in Dancing on Ice. He was the best, but no wonder, with his background, and I seldom liked what he did.

Katie was definitely the big surprise. Wow!

I hate the Sunday results show which was invented for Brucie because "he couldn't cope with the long hours on Saturday". I'm glad we have the spoiler thread and hope it comes back next week

Bloody hell, mine needs to be recalibrated too!

Me too. Its the highlight of my Saturday nights. Sad as it sounds.

Jay's being set up for "the journey" though. Peters a big signing so he's set for the latter stages but he won't win.

Katie was nearly better than Anton!

Well i'm actually shocked at that

Damning with faint praise...

She and Anita did much better than expected.

Admittedly they don't seem to look like brothers....

It is not hatred, just dislike. I am one of those, who does not like her.
In this show people vote for their favorites to stay in. So please don't blame others, if you want your celebrity to stay in, then Vote.

Aaaa thats lovely. Blackpool, your from my neck of the woods.

Hoping some of Tristan's likeability rubs off on Jamelia . I did like their Waltz tonight. Think Jay comes across of being quite sweet. Anton's got a good partners this year thought his jive was good. He can actually dance this year.

I got a belly full of her on Bear Grylls . She never stopped moaning . But I'm prepared to give her a chance .
Not off to a great start though when she moaned in her VT about not wanting the waltz, her least favourite dance . Then her sulky face during the judges critiques . For goodness sake girl , just smile and suck it up like everyone else does . My goodness Carol and Jeremy got ripped to bits and still kept smiling . Professionalism .

As a cha cha, jays was streets ahead but performance and "selling it" counts for a lot on strictly and Peter had that in spades. Jay just needs to believe in himself because he's clearly a great dancer and could wipe the floor with PA as a latin dancer if he just smiled and danced WITH aliona.

Peter didn't had much in his dance that made it a cha cha, but I still loved it (which is unusual for me bc I love cha cha!) Janette once again knowing how to play to her partners strengths to show them off best.

I thought Katie was absolutely fantastic! Total dark horse! Can't wait to see her in ballroom I think she'll be fab.

I thought Jamelia was pretty undermarked. No, it wasn't perfect but it's a week one waltz... obviously it's not going to be perfect! I like her partnership with tristan too.

Absolutely agree about PA - it's like Mark Wright all over again. I think he is hoping he goes on to the West End stage after his terrific dance!


Think Carole or Jeremy first out though.

The difference is, Ray was a great skater, really amazing on the ice, however Peter is not the best make dancer technically, that would be Jay, by a mile (I actually think Jay has one of the best techniques ever potentially), but Peter sells what he is doing.

From Castleford actually, living in Leeds, we were on holiday lol x
We do want to move to Blackpool though.

Team Katie and Anton!! Can't believe he's finally lucked out! Love him. Love her. Whoop.
